It may only feel like weeks ago that the 2015 season ended, but the dates of the 2016 National Road Series have been published by British Cycling, with Spring Cup action getting underway in Chorley on March 26.

The inaugural Manx International GP takes place in Douglas on April 10, with the Lincoln Grand Prix returning to the series to round it off on May 15. Steve Lampier (Raleigh GAC) won the Spring Cup in 2015 and will ride for JLT Condor in 2016.

The Grand Prix Series and Elite Circuit Series intertwine in July and August, with a Grand Prix race to take place in Manchester – details will be announced at a later date.

Jon Mould, who won the Elite Circuit Series for One Pro Cycling in 2015, will also be looking to defend his crown with JLT Condor and will face seven criterium races over four weeks, beginning in Otley and culminating in Colne.
